I wanna see a community for it cause I like using Alpine
You must log in or register to comment.
Are people using it also as desktop or server OS? I only know that it is popular for docket images.
That is the exact question I had on my mind when coming to this post.
I personally use it as a desktop.
I don’t understand, isn’t what makes it a desktop or a server what you want to do with it? Because it has just enough apps and utilities for me to work with it.
Yes, it is. I have only never seen it to be used for something else then docker images so far.
Tips and tricks? I want to install on a chromebook I have, only 16gb mmc so a light distro would be great.
I just picked Alpine Linux for majority of security and efficiency out of the box. It still required a lot of configuration, for lowering attack surface and hardening.
I know you asked for a lightweight distro, but from a security standpoint, I recommend using whatever allows you to relock the bootloader. Which looking up I dont see any choice. If relocking doesnt matter, then any distro for speed is basically any distro that comes with as minimal stuff as possible.
Also, I might be wrong so do some research
Same same. I don’t really have anything to post about Alpine atm, but I’m always open to a conversation about it. Someone could of course create a new community, but the Linux community on here seems small enough right now that people can just post about Alpine here if they’d like.
Yes. As long as communities aren’t that large yet I think it is pointless to split so much.
Just post here.

Yeah, I saw it too but since the reddit blackout was just curious how much went to lemmy instead
